[0082] refer to Figures 1A to 1C The electronic device 100 with a detachable plug of the present invention includes a body 110 and a plug socket 120.

[0083] Reference Figure 1D and Figure 1F The body 110 has an assembly groove FR, a first conductive terminal group 111, and a pressing part 112. The assembly groove FR is formed on one side of the body 110, and the first conductive terminal group 111 is disposed in the assembly groove FR. The pressing part 112 is located on at least one side of the assembly groove FR, and the pressing part 112 is formed by at least one outer side plate P1 and at least one inner side plate P2 of the body 110. In this embodiment, the pressing part 112 is located on both sides of the assembly groove FR, and the pressing part 112 is formed by two outer side plates P1 and two inner side plates P2 of the body 110. In detail, the body 110 has outer side plates P1 and inner side plates P2 separated from each other formed on the shell portion on the side of the assembly groove FR, wherein each outer side plate P1 and the corresponding inner side plate P2 can be arranged parallel and maintain a distance, such that there is a pressing space PS between each outer side plate P1 and the corresponding inner side plate P2 to form the pressing part 112. In this embodiment, each inner side plate P2 has an opening OP communicating with the assembly groove FR, and each outer side plate P1 has a protrusion BP passing through the corresponding opening OP. (See reference) Figure 1EWhen each outer side plate P1 is pressed by an external force F, it will bend and move closer to the corresponding inner side plate P2, causing each protrusion BP to pass through the corresponding opening OP and enter the mounting groove FR, while the two pressing spaces PS shrink. The following paragraphs will further describe the actuation relationship between the pressing part 112 and the plug socket 120.

[0084] The plug socket 120 is detachably disposed in the mounting groove FR of the body 110, wherein the width of the mounting groove FR is substantially equal to the width of the plug socket 120 to facilitate the alignment and locking of the plug socket 120. The plug socket 120 has a power pin assembly 121 and a second conductive terminal assembly 122 (shown in...). Figure 1D (In the cross-sectional view). A power pin assembly 121 protrudes from the top surface TS of the plug socket 120, and is used to connect to an AC outlet. A second conductive terminal assembly 122 is disposed in the plug socket 120 and electrically coupled to the power pin assembly 121. (See reference...) Figure 1A and Figure 1D The first conductive terminal group 111 is adapted to pass through the plug socket 120 and be coupled to the second conductive terminal group 122, thereby housing the plug socket 120 in the mounting groove FR. Thus, the plug socket 120 and the main body 110 are integrated, allowing the first conductive terminal group 111 to be electrically coupled to the power pin group 121 via the second conductive terminal group 122. In some embodiments, each power pin in the power pin group 121 and the corresponding conductive terminal in the second conductive terminal group 122 may be independent components. In some embodiments, each power pin in the power pin group 121 and the corresponding conductive terminal in the second conductive terminal group 122 may be integrally formed.

[0085] In this embodiment, the second conductive terminal group 122 is made of an elastic material. When the first conductive terminal group 111 is inserted into the second conductive terminal group 122, the second conductive terminal group 122 undergoes elastic deformation to clamp the first conductive terminal group 111, thereby improving the reliability of the electrical connection.

[0086] refer to Figure 1G and Figure 1H The plug holder 120 is provided with at least one elastic arm 123 corresponding to the pressing part 112. In this embodiment, the plug holder 120 has two elastic arms 123, one end of each elastic arm 123 is connected to the outer wall surface S1 of the plug holder 120, and there is a deformation space DS between each elastic arm 123 and the corresponding outer wall surface S1, wherein the elastic arm 123 is adapted to undergo elastic deformation in the deformation space DS. In this embodiment, the plug holder 120 is provided with protrusions 124 at the edges of the two outer wall surfaces S1, the leading edge E of each elastic arm 123 is adjacent to the corresponding protrusion 124, and there is a distance D between each elastic arm 123 and the corresponding protrusion 124.

[0087] refer to Figure 1D , Figure 1G and Figure 1H Furthermore, each elastic arm 123 is provided with an elastic portion 1231, abutment portion 1232, and positioning block 1233. The elastic portion 1231 extends obliquely outward from the corresponding outer wall surface S1. The abutment portion 1232 is formed at the end of the elastic portion 1231 away from the outer wall surface S1 and is parallel to the outer wall surface S1. The positioning block 1233 is formed on the abutment portion 1232. When the plug socket 120 is received in the assembly groove FR, each positioning block 1233 engages in the corresponding opening OP and abuts against the corresponding protrusion BP. In addition, each abutment portion 1232 partially abuts against the corresponding inner side plate P2, and each protrusion 124 abuts against the edge of the corresponding inner side plate P2. By engaging the positioning block 1233 of the plug socket 120 in the opening OP of the body 110, the plug socket 120 can be prevented from accidentally slipping out of the assembly groove FR during operation.

[0088] refer to Figure 1D , Figure 1G and Figure 1H Each positioning block 1233 has an inclined surface IS. The inclined surface IS is obliquely formed on the abutment portion 1232 and located on the side closer to the elastic portion 1231. In other words, the inclined surface IS is located on the side of the positioning block 1233 away from the protrusion 124. During the process of the plug socket 120 entering the assembly groove FR, each inner side plate P2 pushes against each positioning block 1233 along the inclined surface IS, causing each elastic portion 1231 to bend. At this time, each positioning block 1233 is adapted to enter the assembly groove FR along the corresponding inner side plate P2 until it is positioned in the opening OP. With the setting of the inclined surface IS, when the plug socket 120 is inserted, the positioning block 1233 will not block the corresponding inner side plate P2. In addition, when the positioning block 1233 is positioned in the opening OP, the positioning block 1233 is not pushed by the inner side plate P2, so it can recover the elastic deformation of the elastic portion 1231, so as to avoid elastic fatigue of the elastic arm 123 under long-term use, thereby extending the service life.

[0089] refer to Figure 1E Each outer side plate P1 is adapted to be subjected to force F and move closer to the corresponding inner side plate P2, so that each protrusion BP enters the assembly groove FR through the opening OP and pushes against the corresponding positioning block 1233 to disengage from the opening OP. At the same time, the elastic part 1231 undergoes elastic deformation, so that each elastic arm 123 moves closer to the corresponding outer wall surface S1. Under this condition, the plug body 120 is adapted to slide in the horizontal direction PD and disengage from the assembly groove FR of the body 110. In this embodiment, the horizontal direction PD can be parallel to the top surface TS of the plug body 120.

[0090] refer to Figure 1B , Figure 1C and Figure 1GThe main body 110 has two slide rails SR, which are respectively disposed on the two inner side plates P2. The plug socket 120 has two slide grooves SG, which are respectively disposed on the two outer wall surfaces S1 of the plug socket 120. The two slide grooves SG slidably accommodate the two slide rails SR. Through the limiting relationship between the slide rails SR and the slide grooves SG, the plug socket 120 is accommodated in or disengaged from the assembly groove FR of the main body 110 along the horizontal direction PD.

[0091] refer to Figure 1B , Figure 1C and Figure 1D The main body 110 has a limiting block 113 disposed in the assembly groove FR and located between the first conductive terminal groups 111 (for example, between two conductive terminals). The plug socket 120 has a limiting groove 125 formed on the side facing the first conductive terminal group 111. When the plug socket 120 is received in the assembly groove FR, the limiting block 113 of the main body 110 is locked in the limiting groove 125 of the plug socket 120, thereby more securely positioning the plug socket 120 in the assembly groove FR.

[0092] In short, for reference Figure 1A and Figure 1B The plug holder 120 of the present invention is adapted to enter the assembly groove FR of the body 110 along the horizontal direction PD, and the two elastic arms 123 of the plug holder 120 are respectively secured to the two inner side plates P2 of the pressing part 112 to fasten the plug holder 120 to the body 110. (Reference) Figure 1D and Figure 1E When disassembling the plug socket 120, an external force F is applied to the two outer side plates P1 of the pressing part 112, causing the two outer side plates P1 to elastically deform and push the two elastic arms 123 to separate from the two inner side plates P2, thereby releasing the plug socket 120 from the body 110 and achieving the purpose of disassembling the plug socket 120. Since the structure for locking and disengaging is designed at the internal joint between the body 110 and the plug socket 120, rather than on the outside of the device body, this concealed structure can improve the appearance of the product and reduce the possibility of water ingress.

[0094] refer to Figure 2A and Figure 2B Another embodiment of the present invention, the electronic device 100A with a detachable plug, differs from... Figure 1A An electronic device 100 with a detachable plug. The difference between the two is that, as referenced... Figure 2B and Figure 2D The body 110a has at least one retaining block 113a. In this embodiment, the body 110a has two retaining blocks 113a, respectively disposed on the two inner side plates P2 and each adjacent to a corresponding opening OP. (See reference...) Figure 2C and Figure 2D The plug socket 120a has protrusions 124a at the edges of its two outer wall surfaces S1. The leading edge E of each elastic arm 123a is adjacent to the corresponding protrusion 124a, and there is a gap D between each elastic arm 123a and the corresponding protrusion 124a, wherein each gap D forms a locking space FS. Each locking space FS is interconnected with the corresponding deformation space DS. When the plug socket 120a is housed in the assembly groove FR of the body 110a, each locking block 113a engages in the corresponding locking space FS and abuts against the leading edge E of the corresponding elastic arm 123a, and each protrusion 124a abuts against the edge of the corresponding inner side plate P2. By engaging the locking blocks 113a of the body 110a in the locking space FS of the plug socket 120a, the plug socket 120a can be prevented from accidentally slipping out of the assembly groove FR during operation.

[0095] Furthermore, refer to Figure 2C and Figure 2D Each elastic arm 123a is provided with an elastic portion 1231a and abutment portion 1232a. The elastic portion 1231 extends obliquely outward from the corresponding outer wall surface S1. The abutment portion 1232a is formed at the end of the elastic portion 1231 away from the outer wall surface S1 and is parallel to the outer wall surface S1. When the plug socket 120a is received in the assembly groove FR, each abutment portion 1232a is located at the corresponding opening OP and abuts against the corresponding protrusion BP.

[0096] refer to Figure 2D and Figure 2E Each outer side plate P1 is adapted to be subjected to force F and move closer to the corresponding inner side plate P2, so that each protrusion BP enters the assembly groove FR through the opening OP and pushes against the corresponding elastic arm 123a towards the corresponding outer wall surface S1, so that the leading edge E of each elastic arm 123a separates from the corresponding locking block 113a. In this state, the plug socket 120a is adapted to slide in the horizontal direction PD and disengage from the assembly groove FR of the body 110a.

Figure 3D yes Figure 3C A schematic diagram of the pressing action of an electronic device with a detachable plug.

[0098] refer to Figures 3A to 3C Another embodiment of the electronic device 100B with a detachable plug differs from the present invention. Figure 1A An electronic device 100 with a detachable plug. The difference between the two is that the electronic device with a detachable plug of the present invention includes a body 110b and a plug socket 120b. The body 110b includes a plug fitting 111b and a housing 112b. The plug fitting 111b has a mounting groove FR and a first conductive terminal group 113b. The first conductive terminal group 113b is disposed in the mounting groove FR. The housing 112b has an opening H. The plug fitting 111b is disposed in the opening H and engages with the housing 112b.

[0099] refer to Figure 3B and Figure 3C The plug assembly 111b has at least one first side plate P3 with an opening OP communicating with the mounting groove FR, and the housing 112b has at least one second side plate P4 with a protrusion BP. In this embodiment, each of the two first side plates P3 of the plug assembly 111b has an opening OP communicating with the mounting groove FR, and each of the two second side plates P4 of the housing 112b has a protrusion BP. When the plug assembly 111b is combined with the housing 112b, each protrusion BP passes through the corresponding opening OP. In this embodiment, the pressing part 112 is located on both sides of the mounting groove FR, and the pressing part 112 is formed by the two first side plates P3 and the two second side plates P4. Specifically, each first side plate P3 and the corresponding second side plate P4 can be arranged in parallel, and the portions of each first side plate P3 and the corresponding second side plate P4 on the side of the mounting groove FR are separated from each other by a distance, so that there is a pressing space PS between each first side plate P3 and the corresponding second side plate P4 to form the pressing part 112.

[0100] refer to Figure 3B Furthermore, the plug assembly 111b has multiple engaging slots 1111b disposed on the two first side plates P3. The housing 112b has multiple latching members 1121b disposed on the two second side plates P4. When the plug assembly 111b is combined with the housing 112b, each latching member 1121b engages with the corresponding engaging slot 1111b. In short, this embodiment and Figure 1A The main difference in the embodiments is that the body 110b of this embodiment includes a plug fitting 111b and a housing 112b that are interlocked and joined together, while Figure 1A The corresponding portion of the outer shell 112b of the body 110 in the embodiment can be a single component or integrally formed.

[0101] refer to Figures 3A to 3C The plug socket 120b is detachably disposed in the mounting groove FR of the plug assembly 111b, wherein the width of the mounting groove FR is substantially equal to the width of the plug socket 120b to facilitate the alignment and locking of the plug socket 120b. The plug socket 120b has a power pin assembly 121b and a second conductive terminal assembly 122b (shown in...). Figure 3C (in the cross-sectional view). The power pin assembly 121b protrudes from the top surface TS of the plug socket 120b, wherein the power pin assembly 121b can be used to connect to an AC outlet. The second conductive terminal assembly 122b is disposed in the plug socket 120b and is electrically coupled to the power pin assembly 121b.

[0102] refer to Figure 3C and Figure 3D The plug body 120b is provided with at least one elastic arm 123b. In this embodiment, the plug body 120b has two elastic arms 123b, one end of each elastic arm 123b is connected to the outer wall surface S2 of the plug body 120b, and there is a deformation space DS between each elastic arm 123b and the corresponding outer wall surface S2, wherein each elastic arm 123b is adapted to undergo elastic deformation in the deformation space DS.

[0103] Furthermore, each elastic arm 123b is provided with an elastic portion 1231b, abutment portion 1232b, and positioning block 1233b. The elastic portion 1231b extends obliquely outward from the corresponding outer wall surface S2. The abutment portion 1232b is formed at the end of the elastic portion 1231b away from the outer wall surface S2 and is parallel to the outer wall surface S2. The positioning block 1233b is formed on the abutment portion 1232b. When the plug socket 120b is received in the assembly groove FR, each positioning block 1233b engages in the corresponding opening OP and abuts against the corresponding protrusion BP. In addition, each abutment portion 1232b partially abuts against the corresponding first side plate P3.

[0104] refer to Figure 3B and Figure 3CEach positioning block 1233b has an inclined surface IS. The inclined surface IS is obliquely formed on the abutment portion 1232b and located on the side close to the elastic portion 1231b. During the process of the plug body 120b entering the assembly groove FR, each first side plate P3 pushes against each positioning block 1233b along the inclined surface IS, causing each elastic portion 1231b to bend. At this time, each positioning block 1233b is adapted to enter the assembly groove FR along the corresponding first side plate P3 until it is positioned in the opening OP without obstructing the corresponding first side plate P3. In addition, after the positioning block 1233b is positioned in the opening OP, the elastic deformation of the elastic portion 1231b can be restored to avoid elastic fatigue of the elastic arm 123b under long-term use, thereby extending its service life.

[0105] refer to Figure 3C and Figure 3D Each second side plate P4 is adapted to be subjected to force and move closer to the corresponding first side plate P3, so that each protrusion BP enters the assembly groove FR through the corresponding opening OP and pushes against the corresponding positioning block 1233b to disengage from the corresponding opening OP. At the same time, the elastic part 1231b undergoes elastic deformation, so that each elastic arm 123b moves closer to the corresponding outer wall surface S2. Under this condition, the plug socket 120b is adapted to slide in the horizontal direction PD and disengage from the assembly groove FR of the body 110b.

[0106] In other embodiments, Figure 2A and Figure 2B The body 110a of the embodiment can also be adopted as follows: Figure 3B In the embodiment of the assembled plug assembly and housing, the main body 110a can replace the damaged plug assembly or housing. For related descriptions, please refer to the foregoing embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0108] refer to Figure 4A and Figure 4B The electronic device 100C with a detachable plug in this embodiment includes a body 110c and a plug socket 120c. The difference between this embodiment and the previous embodiments is that the plug socket 120c has a power pin assembly 121c and multiple storage slots 123c. The power pin assembly 121c is rotatably disposed on the plug socket 120c. (See reference...) Figure 4A In use, the power pin assembly 121c protrudes from multiple storage slots 123c of the plug socket 120c, and the power pin assembly 121b is used to connect to a mains power outlet. (Reference) Figure 4BIn the stowed state, the power plug group 121c rotates relative to the plug body 120c and enters multiple storage slots 123c to reduce the size.

[0110] refer to Figure 5A and Figure 5B In this embodiment, the plug socket 120d has a first housing 121d, a spring arm structure 122d, and a second housing 123d. A power pin assembly 124d protrudes from the top surface TS of the first housing 121d, and the spring arm structure 122d is disposed between the first housing 121d and the second housing 123d. The spring arm structure 122d has a positioning portion 1221d and two elastic arms 1222d, which are connected to opposite sides of the positioning portion 1221d and extend from the positioning portion 1221d by bending. The elastic arms 1222d of the spring arm structure 122d are similar to the elastic arms 123 (or elastic arms 123a) of the aforementioned embodiment, and will not be described again here. In detail, the first housing 121d has a receiving space AS. When the plug socket 120d is assembled, the second housing 123d is disposed in the receiving space AS to clamp the spring arm structure 122d. The positioning part 1221d of the spring arm structure 122d is engaged within the first housing 121d and the second housing 123d. The connection (i.e., the bend) between each elastic arm 1222d and the positioning part 1221d is engaged in the slot PG on the side of the second housing 123d, so that the two elastic arms 1222d extend out of the second housing 123d. Figure 5A and Figure 5B As shown, the first housing 121d has an opening at the position corresponding to the elastic arm 1222d, so the elastic arm 1222d can be exposed outside the plug socket 120d to achieve the function of snapping and disassembling between the plug socket 120d and the main body. This embodiment uses a separately designed elastic arm structure 122d, first housing 121d, and second housing 123d, which can reduce the difficulty of component manufacturing and maintain the convenience of assembly.

[0111] In summary, the electronic device of the present invention has a detachable plug, in which the plug socket is detachably disposed in the mounting slot of the main body. The plug socket can be replaced with a different specification according to usage requirements to accommodate different types of AC sockets. Furthermore, the main body and plug socket of the present invention employ a concealed connection structure, which improves the product's appearance and reduces the likelihood of water ingress.
